New member with an old project.

Research for my project drove me to your site. Thanks to everyone who has contributed and shared their knowledge!

My current project is a 1967 M715. It is a tractor that I can drive on the road, and treat it as such. Used for crusing the backroads and other nonsence. I want reliability and simplicity, not looking for performance, simply wanting convienance the tbi has to offer. I bought an 88 Chevy 4x4 with a blown head gasket and picked out the harness/parts I needed for the transplant. Stumbled across a vortech that had 40k miles on it, rebuilt the 88 heads and slapped them on the vortech block. I'm sure to get some heat over using the 88 heads.

I wanted kept the stock t98 tranny and PTO driven winch. An adaptor kit with no instructions (fustrating) made it happon. Dropped the tank and cut out the top of a 88 chevy fuel tank and mounted it ontop of the original 715 tank so I could have a 12v sending unit and a proper pump. I did straighten out the bends in the in-tank lines to get the pre filter just off the bottom of the tank.

So thanks again for the site, see ya around!

Darn Avatar... The 1967 M715 is hardly a tractor, but way cool rig... technicality? 1 /4 ton axles and lockers. Bout 25-30 years ago a guy got one and bolted in a SBC, then cut up the wheels to mount some big sand tires, not a lot available then! Did the sand dunes fine on the cheap!

He had most of the fording kit still on or re-rigged made for some cool underwater pictures while driving.
